Lewis glycosphingolipids as critical determinants of TRAIL sensitivity in cancer cells.
Article in Oncogene, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) induces cancer cell death and contributes to tumor rejection by cytotoxic lymphocytes in cancer immunosurveillance and immunotherapy. TRAIL and TRAIL receptor agonists have garnered wide popularity as promising agents for cancer therapy. We previously demonstrated that the loss of fucosylation in cancer cells impairs TRAIL sensitivity; however, the precise structures of the fucosylated glycans that regulate TRAIL sensitivity and their carrier molecules remain elusive. Herein, we observed that Lewis glycans among various fucosylated glycans positively regulate TRAIL-induced cell death. Specifically, Lewis glycans on lacto/neolacto glycosphingolipids, but not glycoproteins including TRAIL receptors, enhanced TRAIL-induced formation of the cytosolic caspase 8 complex, without affecting the formation of the membranous receptor complex. Furthermore, type I Lewis glycan expression in colon cancer cell lines and patient-derived cancer organoids was positively correlated with TRAIL sensitivity. These findings provide novel insights into the regulatory mechanism of TRAIL-induced cell death and facilitate the identification of novel predictive biomarkers for TRAIL-related cancer therapies in future.
